We’d like to say a warm welcome to Michelle Engel who is this week’s guest designer. Here is Michelle’s challenge:
I love using the new Core’dinations cardstock to create fun background textures on my projects. I challenge you to use something hanging around your house to create a background. For my card, I used a Lego building base.
All you need to do is put the object of choice behind the cardstock and then gently sand the top. Voila—the texture will appear on the top of the cardstock and now you have an interesting background for your next project.
